Putting down the account book, Tracy pinched her eyebrows with her fingers and leaned tiredly on the back of her chair, lost in thought.
As the situation on the frontline worsened, a large number of wealthy people and nobles hurriedly left Munich and sought refuge in the north. The auction house's business plummeted. The auction house that used to be bustling with people was now deserted. And this was reflected in the books.
It’s hard to see the extreme numbers in this group!
"Is there any news from the head office?" Tracy turned her attention to Li Fanxi, the sixth-level manager at the desk.
"Not yet." Li Fanxi shook his head.
This answer made Tracy sigh silently. She stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the panic and chaos of the city, silently.
Because of a conflict with someone from the General Association, Tracy came to Lulian five years ago. Three years ago, she became the director of the Munich branch of the auction house affiliated with the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce.
Tracy is very capable.
In the past three years, she has worked hard and conscientiously to make Munich Auction House one of the top ten branches under the head office. It is the largest company in the Lulian auction industry. Compared with the previous shabby one, the profit
Munich branch has increased by twenty-five times!
For such achievements, she spent three years of her youth, countless efforts, and gained a good reputation as a beautiful woman.
Five years ago, she was an elegant, noble, knowledgeable and courteous young lady. But now, in the eyes of her peers, she is a mercenary and ruthless vampire queen; a courtesan with fluttering dance skirts in the wealthy and aristocratic circles;
She's also the "pretty little bitch" that some people talk about behind her back!
Tracy didn't mind these gossips. She had been prepared for this long before she sat in this position. But what disappointed her was that her efforts failed to get corresponding rewards.
This year is the election year for the elders of the three major branches of the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce.
Car dealerships, banks and auction houses each have a few elders to give up their positions. The vacant positions will be created among branch elders and branch heads in major provinces and cities.
Logically speaking, in terms of both performance and ability, Tracy is far ahead of other competitors, and it is only natural that she joins the auction house's head office.
However, due to the suppression of that big shot, all her efforts and hard work came to nothing.
Looking at the sunset outside the window, Tracy raised a wry smile on her lips.
Things in the world are impermanent, just like this sunset, unpredictable. Maybe one minute it was like a cloud of fire, and the next minute it was already a haze.
She was also suppressed. But not long ago, she had full confidence in her promotion to the elder of the auction house. The reason was that at that time, she met the magic pattern master Lone Wolf.
In that accidental and lucky encounter, chief appraiser Luke recognized the identity of Lone Wolf. And Tracy did not waste this golden opportunity. Not only did she show her kindness to Lone Wolf, but she also seized the opportunity.
Bought the Seven-Star Magic Pattern Sword that Lone Wolf was going to auction.
Tracy still remembers what an unprecedented sensation it caused when she took the magic pattern sword and personally took the magic ship to the association's magic pattern research institute.
Ever since Lone Wolf appeared in Meiding City, his new magic pattern, which is completely different from the current magic pattern system, has caused a sensation in the magic pattern world. Although it is not a world-famous one, in the circle of magic pattern masters, it is
Everyone knows that many magic pattern masters spend a lot of money just to get a piece of Lone Wolf's work to observe and study.
But just like that, the few low-level magic pattern works left by Lone Wolf were quickly divided up and became the treasures of a few people.
For ordinary people, it may be a bit outrageous that a few low-level magic pattern products are so sought after. But for magic pattern masters and major chambers of commerce, it is worth the money. What they need is not something like this, but
The knowledge contained in this new magic pattern is the secret behind its surprising effects.
The improvement in magic pattern knowledge brought about by cracking the magic pattern alone is far more than the value of a magic pattern. If more new magic patterns can be derived from this, or copied in large quantities,
, the benefits it brings are even more immeasurable.
The Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce, as the largest economic institution in the empire, not only owns three major banks and thousands of business groups and chaebols, but also has its own various research institutes such as magic patterns, potions, and forging, etc.
The most outstanding masters of various industries in the empire.
The achievements of the masters are transformed into weapons and equipment and panaceas with the logo of the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce, which are continuously transported through the huge tentacles of the Chamber of Commerce, through hundreds of caravans, transported to all directions, sent to the largest and most luxurious shops, and placed on display.
The most conspicuous location, the most expensive price.
It is with the help of these masters that the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce will stand firm for hundreds of years and grow stronger. Therefore, in the chamber of commerce, the bosses of chaebols and business groups all respect the masters. As long as they are masters
If they need anything, they will do whatever it takes to find it.
After Lone Wolf appeared, he quickly attracted the attention of several masters from the Federation's Magic Pattern Research Institute. In order to find Lone Wolf, the Federation sent a senior elder southward. However, the final result was not to mention finding Lone Wolf.
, is the work of Lone Wolf, and the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce tried their best to only buy two pieces.
It is said that these two magic pattern products have become the treasures of the magic pattern research institute. Several masters studied the mysteries without sleep and food, and even argued fiercely from time to time. However, because there were not enough templates for magic pattern comparison, so
, facing this kind of magic pattern that is completely different from the current magic pattern system that they have studied for decades, everyone is helpless. But the more this happens, the more precious this magic pattern is.
Who is the lone wolf?
What kind of secret does this magic pattern hold?
In addition to low-level magic pattern products, are there any mid-to-high-level magic patterns for this new magic pattern?
These problems have troubled the masters for a long time. They often have trouble sleeping and sleeping.
If they don't live well, no one will live well. It is said that the president has raised the task of finding the lone wolf to the first-level standard within the guild, and several elders have even sent people desperately to find out about the lone wolf.
As long as there is a slightest hint of the whereabouts, they will rush there immediately, even if they are thousands of miles away.
Until that day, Tracy appeared at the Magic Pattern Research Institute with a magic pattern sword.
The president is here. Several elders are here, and several masters from the institute are rushing over. The appraiser from the general association appraised on the spot that this was the work of a lone wolf, and that it had reached the fourth level of magic.
When they saw Vin's intermediate work, everyone looked at Tracy with excitement and appreciation.
This is currently the highest-grade and most precious piece of Lone Wolf’s work that everyone has come into contact with. And it’s the only one!
It is no exaggeration to say that Tracy's contribution to this magic pattern sword alone is enough to rank among the top three in this year's General Assembly's merit book!
With such great achievements, coupled with her ability and performance, her promotion to the elder of the auction house is almost certain. Even the person who has been suppressing her has no reason to object anymore.
The future is bright!
But what Tracy never dreamed of was that at this critical moment, Lulian's changes would cause the auction house's performance to drop significantly.
This gives that person a chance to strike again.
This time, that person didn't make any boring excuses. He just took advantage of the situation and gave Tracy a problem that even the Magic Pattern Research Institute couldn't solve.
"Each of the three major banks under the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce is an industry hegemon. If you want to become an elder in the industry, qualifications, abilities, and achievements are all indispensable. When performance declines, we can consider situational factors. But for this magic pattern task, a
Entrusted by the big shot, the Mission Hall and the Divine Artisan Hall are eyeing it. It is related to the Golden Skull's signature. There is no room for any mistakes. Once it is completed, you will be promoted to the elder of the auction house. If you can't finish it..."
Tracy was too lazy to think about the rest.
If she was willing, she would not have come to Lulian five years ago. Now that she has made her choice, the only thing she can do is to go to the end. Never let some people see the joke!
But... the magic pattern master named "Austin" has never appeared again since the last time he appeared. There is a huge crowd of people, and the other party deliberately hides his identity. Unless he is looking for him, where can he go?
Looking for him? Besides, even if he is found, can he help him complete that task?
"Lone Wolf..." As she whispered the name in her heart, that thin figure seemed to appear again in front of Tracy's eyes.
Although Lone Wolf had his face covered the last time they met, she could still tell that Lone Wolf was not very old. He might even be just a boy under twenty years old.
Tracy couldn't help but burst out laughing. Looking back a few years, she would never have imagined that one day her fate would be tied to a young man.
Now, it is already the last few days to complete the task. Although I have made efforts in other aspects, until now, the people entrusted by the General Association have still not been able to send back any news. This means that that
This decision of human beings has been acquiesced by everyone.
Such is the struggle at the top.
No matter how much they appreciate themselves, adults will not easily offend a person who has the same position of authority as them. That is not in their interests.
Tracy stared blankly out the window. The sunset in the distance was gradually dimming just like her mood at the moment. But at this moment, she suddenly discovered that a carriage, escorted by a group of knights, was driving rapidly.
Crossed the street and entered the gate of the backyard of the auction house.
When she saw the car door open and a masked figure appear on the lawn shrouded in the afterglow, Tracy suddenly jumped up.
Under Li Fanxi's surprised gaze, she looked like a frizzy little girl, holding up the hem of her skirt and rushing out of the room.
"It's Austin..." she shouted in surprise, "He's here."
……………………
……………………
Because Kalenich, Percy and most of the bandit knights were not at the manor, Roy went out this time without the same pomp and circumstance as before.
A knight of glory, three knights of justice, Malt, Mickey, Carol and the elf doctor Philomena, put on civilian clothes and formed a convoy that looked no different from ordinary nobles.
, parked on the lawn in the backyard of the Golden Skull Auction House.
Mal'er still wore the peacock mask from last time and reluctantly followed Roy out of the carriage.
She felt pain in her heart when she thought that Jin Lulang would soon take out a lot of money from her pocket.
"Prodigal son." Mai Ya'er muttered, reluctantly following Roy, walking forward in steps so small that he wished he could walk from the lawn to the steps for an eternity in just a few dozen meters.
"What do you want to buy? Tell me first and plan it carefully, otherwise, no matter how much money you have, it won't be enough for you... It's not easy to save this money. We are still working in the orchard in the hot weather. There is a big basket.
The grapes are only one ginta, and you don’t make much money by turning them into wine..."
Mal's nagging made Roy just want to laugh. The corners of the mouths of several knights also curled up.
How did the money in Malya'er's hand come from? If others don't know, don't we know it? Whether it's cheating or robbing, it's just nothing to do with picking fruits in the orchard. All the harvests of Green Tower Manor in the past two months,
They are all from the fields in the past. Added together, there are probably less than thirty Jin Lu Lang.
Fortunately, Ma Ya'er could scream so righteously. It was as if she had picked the fruits for these hundreds of thousands of dollars. If those bandits who had been robbed of all their property heard it, they would probably cry to death again.
Everyone was smiling when a graceful figure came out of the foyer of the building.
"Mr. Austin is here." Tracy walked down the steps, gently twirled the hem of her skirt with her bare hands, squatted down slightly, and said with a smile on her face, "It's so dazzling."
Roy's eyes lit up, and he was immediately pinched secretly by Mai Ya'er.
In this world, there are many beautiful women. But there are not many beautiful and figure women. And women who are both beautiful, figure and have outstanding temperament are even rarer.
Tracy is undoubtedly one of them.
She was seen wearing a lake blue silk skirt with purple edges. The waist was narrowed and the U-shaped neckline was embroidered with a cluster of purple magic orchids, which made her round breasts whiter and fuller.
Under the pleated short sleeves are thin sunshade gauze sleeves, vaguely revealing a pair of graceful jade arms. Under the flat and slender belly, the lake blue silk skirt spreads out like water waves. When she walks briskly, the delicate high heels fall from her body.
The wavy skirt peeks out, making it extremely charming.
Thirty years old, for some women, is past their most beautiful age, but for other women, it is the most mature and charming stage.
Just like Tracy at this moment, she stood in front of everyone with a smile, just like a blooming flower, fragrant and fragrant, presenting the beauty of a woman to the extreme. It is pleasing to the eye.
"Miss Tracy, you are too polite." Roy bowed slightly and said with a smile.
"Mr. Austin, please come inside." Tracy looked at the masked face in front of her and felt joy in her heart. She led the way personally and asked, "I don't know what Mr.
Do you need me to help you? Could it be..."
Thinking of a possibility, Tracy became even more excited, "Mr. Austin, do you have a new work?"
Facing Tracy's expectant gaze, Roy shook his head and said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Miss Tracy. My identity here today is not a seller, but a buyer."
Buyer... Tracey's eyes flashed with disappointment. However, she quickly controlled her emotions, covered her mouth and smiled, "So, Mr. Austin, you sent me money.
Then I won't be polite. I must have sharpened my knife and kill you well."
Roy smiled and admired in his heart.
Tracy is worthy of being the director of the Munich Auction House. Although it was only the second time they met. From the moment she got off the carriage to the moment she walked into the auction house building, it was only a few dozen meters. But with a few words from her, the atmosphere changed.
It was extremely harmonious and warm. It was like meeting old friends. There was no strangeness or restraint at all. This kind of refreshing thing is not something that just anyone can learn.
Following Tracy into the auction house, they sat down in the luxuriously decorated VIP room on the second floor. Tracy ordered tea to be poured for Roy and others, and she and Li Fanxi sat across from Roy.
"Mr. Austin," Tracy said with a smile, "If you need anything, just tell me. As long as it is available in the Golden Skull Auction House, it's no problem. Even if it's not available, I will try my best to find it for you.
You can rest assured about that."
Roy nodded, with no expression on his half-masked face. He just took out a list and pushed it from the coffee table to Tracy.
Tracy picked up the list, glanced at it, and her expression changed slightly.
'this'
The atmosphere suddenly became a little dull and depressing.
Looking at Tracy and Roy who were silent, Li Fanxi, Mai Ya'er and others beside them were all a little confused. No one knew what exactly was written on Roy's list, which actually made Tracy look so cautious and embarrassed.
.
Roy drank his tea without saying a word.
Only he knew that his list was more like an arms list than a purchase list.
Ever since he personally experienced that tragic night a year and a half ago, Big Head knows that in this troubled world, what he can rely on is not anyone but his own strength. Only with enough strength can he and those around him be protected.
People's destiny is in their own hands.
As for the combat effectiveness of an army, in addition to its own martial arts and fighting spirit, equipment is also an extremely important component. Under the condition of equal strength, a knight group with ordinary equipment is definitely not the opponent of a squad of heaven-changing knights.
The bandit army has just formed an army, not to mention that it is not as good as the regular knights in this aspect, but even the low-level knights under many lords are quite inferior.
One day, when the bandit army is fighting a life-and-death battle on the battlefield, and they fail not because of their own strength, but because of their opponent's stronger equipment, that will make Roy heartbroken.
Therefore, when he learned that his net worth had increased significantly, Roy's first reaction was to create a team of Heavenly Transformation Knights.
The so-called Heavenly Transformation Knight is a knight equipped with a complete set of magic pattern equipment.
A helmet, two armguards, a breastplate, a breastplate, and two leg armors are called the Seven Stars of Heaven. Together with the weapons and the saddle called the Knight's Base, they are combined into the Nine Stars.
The nine-star magic patterns each have their own functions. They can function independently, and can also interact with each other to form a magic pattern array, which can greatly increase combat effectiveness.
Because of their experience, the bandit knights are far beyond the ordinary knights of the same level in terms of personal strength, combat experience, and tenacity of will and spirit. Once they become the Heavenly Transformation Knights, Roy believes that the bandit army's combat effectiveness will be improved by at least three times.
to five times.
Therefore, no matter what, he must arm the bandit army to the teeth before the battle breaks out. As long as there is a slight chance to become stronger, he will not let it go.
However, it is easy to say it, but it is not easy to do it.
A set of Heavenly Transformation Armor is so valuable that even wealthy nobles, not to mention ordinary knights, can rarely afford it. Moreover, the price is still a trivial matter, and most importantly, even those with money may not be able to buy it.
Because the combat effectiveness of the Heavenly Transformation Knights far exceeds that of ordinary knights, the empire's senior officials have extremely strict control over this type of equipment.
The magic pattern masters who have the ability to make heavenly transformation armor are all high-level magic pattern masters, and these people are either in the church, the royal family and the top nobles' castles, or in places such as the Divine Craftsman Hall, the Mission Hall and the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce.
In such a huge organization, how many heaven-changing equipment they produce every year and what grade the equipment they produce are all recorded and strictly controlled.
Although there are many privately manufactured and concealed equipments among them, these are all activities within the top nobles and forces. With an identity like Roy, he can't even think about it.
Of course, Roy would not be stupid enough to put a request to buy the Heavenly Transformation Suit directly in the list. In that case, let alone Tracy, even the chief elder of the Lulian branch of the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce would be unable to do anything.
One set or two of low-level Heavenly Transformation Armors might still be available, but there are so many of them, especially during a war like this, that even if you put a knife to their necks, it would be impossible to find them.
Therefore, what was listed in Roy's list was not magic pattern equipment, but six-star or above armors and weapons mixed with magic gold.
For Tracy, level six equipment is not unusual. Not to mention level six, even level eight equipment, the auction house also handles a lot of it. However, equipment made with magic gold is not that simple.
This kind of equipment is exactly the material to build the Heavenly Transformation Armor! If it is just ordinary magic pattern armor, then magic copper and magic silver are enough. And it is more economical and affordable.
Therefore, when she saw this list, Tracy couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Although the empire's control over armored weapons with magic gold is not as strict as that for heavenly equipment, magic gold equipment with six stars or above is still not something that can be obtained casually. If nothing else, magic gold alone
The rarity of the body and the forging requirements for six-star equipment are enough to make most people give up.
What's more, Roy wants ten sets!
What does he want to do if he wants these things? Could it be that he wants to build ten sets of Heavenly Transformation Armor?
Knowing the identity of 'Austin' as a magic tattoo master, Tracy naturally thought of this aspect. However, even she couldn't believe this guess.
In her opinion, although Austin has a new magic pattern that astonishes many magic pattern masters, his most advanced work is only a fourth-level magic pattern.
Moreover, he is too young.
Making Heavenly Transformation Armor is not as simple as drawing magic patterns. It requires magic knowledge and experience that even many old magic pattern masters who have studied magic patterns for a lifetime may not be able to master it.
And those magic pattern masters who can create the Heavenly Transformation Armor have all experienced a lot of failures and spent a lot of money before they succeeded.
Judging from the green face under Austin's mask, it is impossible for him to have the strength to build a Heavenly Transformation Armor.
However, no matter what he bought these things for, it was indeed a problem.
Tracy was hesitant for a moment, but also faintly excited.
This is a problem, but it is also an opportunity
You know, in this city of Munich, there are not many places that can take this order. The Golden Skull Auction House is definitely the first choice!
Austin obviously understands this, otherwise, he would not have found himself.
And if you want to meet his needs, although it will take some trouble and even take some risks, this is your best opportunity to further deepen his favor. Perhaps.
Thinking of this, Tracy stood up and said to Roy, 'Mr. Austin, can I talk to you alone?'
'Of course.' Roy said. He nodded to Mal'er and others, and followed Tracy into the small room inside the VIP room.
This is a room specially designed for private negotiations. It is only more than 20 square meters in size. The walls are thick and solid, and are engraved with expensive and complex soundproofing magic patterns. The floor is covered with soft and precious cashmere woven carpets. The whole room except for two high-backed soft
There are chairs and a coffee table, but no other furnishings.
"Mr. Austin" closed the door and sat down. Tracy stared into Roy's eyes and asked, "You should know that the goods you need cannot be bought casually."
'I understand,' Roy nodded, 'that's exactly why I came to you.'
If we talk about relationships, between the Divine Craftsman Hall, the Mission Hall and the Golden Skull Auction House, Roy is the closest to the Mission Hall. Even if he doesn't go to Ling Xuan, he can get everything he wants with just an eagle feather badge.
However, to transport ten sets of six-star magic gold equipment in a short period of time without attracting attention, only the Golden Skull Chamber of Commerce can do it. The strength of the Mission Hall is manpower, and in terms of material resources, the Golden Skeleton Chamber of Commerce
The largest commercial organization in the empire has power that ordinary people cannot imagine.
The last cooperation made Roy very fond of Tracy. This was also a major factor in his choosing this place.
'When you need help, you can think of me,' Tracey said with a smile, 'I am deeply honored. But to buy all these things, you need a lot of money.'
"How much does it cost?" Roy asked.
‘The market price of a set of six-star equipment is about 40,000 gold coins, while the same-level equipment made by Mojin costs three times that!’
Tracy looked seriously into Roy's eyes and said, 'I have calculated that according to your list, these ten sets of six-star armor alone will cost more than one million gold coins.'
‘His!’ Roy gasped as if he had a toothache.
Although he knew that the magic gold armor was very expensive, and he only planned ten sets, he still did not expect that this thing was so ridiculously expensive. The value of one set of armor alone was equivalent to the assets of Baron Polabel, ten sets.
A suit of armor is enough to buy one-third of Borabel City!
Six-star armor is just rare equipment. If it were legendary equipment like seven-star, eight-star, or nine-star, wouldn't the price of that set make you go bankrupt?
Thinking about the money he had to pay, Roy didn't dare to go out and face Mal'er.
The one million gold coins he got from Scarlett, together with the money from the sale of the seven-star magic pattern sword, had already been spent on redeeming elves, buying Bandez, and immigrating. Now Malt
The cash in hand all came from the recent seizures made by the bandit army during the eradication of bandit groups.
Among them, there was only 220,000 gold lang in cash, and the rest were goods disposed of in the underground black market. The amount was estimated to be around 300,000 gold lang.
The rest are the materials for practicing medicine and painting demons that he had collected in the Warcraft Mountains back from the Fifth Legion.
Although this part, together with other similar materials in the Fifth Army's transport team, is worth more than one million gold langs, these materials cannot be bought with money. Once sold, it will be difficult to buy them back in the future.
. Therefore, it cannot be used in any case.
Calculated this way, the money in my hand is less than half of Tracy’s quote!
Roy scratched his scalp and felt a little dizzy for a moment. He didn't expect that magic gold equipment would be so much more expensive than ordinary equipment of the same level. But he could completely imagine that Malyaer would still be willing to pay for it after knowing that he had used up all his savings at once.
The reaction to owing a large amount of money.
She will definitely jump up and bite herself hard, she will!
Seemingly sensing Roy's embarrassment, Tracy covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes curved into crescent moons. Her gaze was like a fox that had stolen a chicken.
‘You don’t have enough money?’ Tracey said with a smile, ‘As a distinguished guest of the auction house, Mr. Austin, don’t forget that you can have an overdraft of ten thousand blue gold coins.’
"That's not enough." Roy frowned, thinking about where to get more money.
The room became quiet for a moment.
After a moment, Tracy's mouth curved with a sly arc: "Actually, some things cannot be solved with money alone. The relationship between us is not necessarily just a business relationship..."
Seeing Roy raising his head in surprise, Tracy said softly, "With your ability, Mr. Austin, if you cooperate with us, it will definitely not be a problem for you to spend such a small amount of money."
Roy narrowed his eyes slightly.
In this world, magic pattern masters and pharmacists may be the richest and poorest people. Their profession determines that they can make a lot of money in a short period of time. But equally, it is possible
All the money is spent on the backhand.
Not to mention anything else, a single failure in engraving a magic pattern or refining an elixir can make them bankrupt.
But for Roy, this is not a big problem. Because he has the Eye of Elements, he can control the probability of failure to a minimum. Others may need dozens or hundreds of experiments to master the refining technique.
It only takes him a few times to master it accurately.
In terms of making money, painting magic and refining medicine are definitely the fastest ways.
but……
Roy hesitated a little. The magic pattern of life was his biggest secret. This kind of magic pattern, which was completely different from the current magic pattern system, attracted the attention of many people since it was first exposed.
Although he carefully concealed his identity, Roy still did not want to expose too much of the magic pattern of life and expose it to unnecessary danger. Especially if it was used for sale, it was not a good idea.
As for medicine training, his prescriptions all come from Austin's diary, which should not be exposed too much. Among other things, the spiritual power pill sold to Fulin last time became Ivy's research product. If
If she knew that she made it by herself, she would be immediately arrested and sliced for study.
This promotion is too important to her. As long as she crosses this threshold, she can truly become a senior executive of the Golden Skeleton Chamber of Commerce, without being suppressed and controlled by others. Even that person can no longer target her like before.
Own.
Only then will you be able to truly make it through, and your efforts over the past few years will be meaningful!
And all hope lies in the lone wolf in front of you!
From the moment she saw Roy appear, Tracy knew that this was her only chance. If she missed it, she might regret it for the rest of her life.
She bit her lip, got up and went out. A moment later, she walked in with a gold-painted wooden box and placed it on the coffee table in front of Roy.
The wooden box was simple and beautiful. From the rare magic sandalwood, the inlaid jewelry and the master's craftsmanship, Roy could tell how precious this box was.
Things packed in such a box are obviously more extraordinary.
However, what was unexpected was that when Tracy opened the wooden box, what Roy saw was a tattered orchid root.
This is
Tracy carefully took the branch out of the box and handed it to Roy.
Roy took it in confusion, wondering why Tracy suddenly gave him such a thing. However, as soon as he took the branch, he was immediately attracted.
I saw that the branch was only about 278 centimeters long. It was thick at one end and thin at the other. It was covered with spider web-like cracks. On the thin section, there were five uneven forks. At the forks, there were rows of small ones.
The hole has several circular circles carved underneath.
As soon as he got it, Roy knew why this tattered branch was packed in such a precious box.
The reason is very simple, because this branch is nothing else. It is a priceless piece of Phoenix Thunder Elf Wood!
As the name suggests, the so-called Phoenix Thunder Elf Wood is a branch of an ancient elf tree that was inhabited by the fire-based sacred beast Phoenix, crystallized by the fire element, and then struck by lightning from the sky. To a magician, this is
One of the best wand materials!
You know, the ancient elf tree has always been an excellent wand material. Especially for wood magicians, using wands made from the wood of the ancient elf tree to release magic can not only make the same magic have greater attack power, but also
Can save more than 20% of mana.
However, the ancient elven tree is a sacred object of the elves and is closely guarded and protected. Unless someone has great kindness to the elves and can receive a gift, others who want to obtain the branches of the ancient elven tree must pay a price
He is an enemy of all elves.
The branches of the ancient elf tree are already so rare, let alone the branches where the legendary fire-based sacred beast Phoenix once inhabited?
The phoenix is a sacred beast. Everyone has only heard of it in myths and legends. No one has seen it, and no one even knows if it really exists. It is already an impossible task to see a phoenix. Get it.
The branches on which it rests are even more fantastic.
As for lightning strikes, it is not difficult. As long as they obtain such branches, magicians can trigger thunder through the magic array arranged on the top of the mountain. Of course, just setting up such a magic array and maintaining it is a huge expense
.Moreover, that is not something that ordinary magicians can accomplish.
Such a branch contains the power of wood, fire and thunder. If it is made into a wand, it will be very powerful. Just thinking about it makes people shudder.
I don't know what happened to others. But Roy believes that if he encounters a guy holding this thing in the future, even if the other person is just a one-star Langxing mage, he'd better hide as far away as possible.
Holding this Phoenix Thunder Elf Wood, which was much heavier than ordinary Elf Wood, Roy's breathing became uncontrollably heavy. He couldn't even resist the thought of grabbing it and running away!
"This is wind and thunder elf wood," Tracy said. "It was originally used by a magician to make wands. After completing the preliminary carving process, it was entrusted to us..."
As she said that, she took out three magic patterns from the wooden box, placed them one by one in front of Roy, and continued, "The client doesn't want to waste such good materials. He hopes to complete the work on them."
Three magic pattern arrays. This one is of the wood element, this one is of the fire element, and this one is a big lightning strike..."
Roy was a little dumbfounded.
He had already vaguely guessed Tracy's intention of showing this thing to him. However, these magic patterns were completely beyond his current abilities. These were no longer fourth-level or fifth-level magic patterns, but only magic patterns.
A super-level magic pattern that can only be completed by a tattoo master.
If Williams were to come, it might still be possible. With these two brushes... I have just learned the beginning of traditional magic patterns.
Tracy looked at Roy's face and guessed what he was thinking. She smiled slightly and said, "Actually, the client can complete these three magic patterns by himself. His problem is... among these three magic patterns
The 'boundary' line between."
Roy suddenly understood.
The wood element and fire element magic patterns on the wand are both gain type magic patterns. Their function is to unleash the potential of the wand and enhance the elements, allowing the magician to release magic faster and easier. Moreover, magic of the same level is more powerful.
.
However, these gain-like magic patterns will affect each other due to different elements. Therefore, they must be planned into a boundary in advance. Different magic patterns have their own place in different circles. The magic patterns that form a boundary,
It's the boundary.
The boundary is both division and fusion. The magic lines of different elements are used differently for the boundary. For example, in this wand, wood and fire do not have a conflicting relationship, but they have a mutually reinforcing relationship. The wood element can enhance the fire element. However, if you do not add
If it is restricted, I am afraid that after a fire spell, the wand will be broken due to the uncontrollable explosion of the fire element.
Therefore, between the wood and fire magic patterns, a mutually incompatible elemental magic pattern is needed as the boundary. That is, the gold elemental magic pattern.
Metal overcomes wood, and fire overcomes metal. Use metal to curb wood's excessive support for fire, and then use fire to restrain metal to form a fire element consumption channel that can be activated at any time, which can not only ensure that the fire element does not get out of control, but also can be used when needed
When reducing the metal element and increasing the wood element, the three can just achieve a balance.
No matter whether the magician uses wood magic or fire magic, the wand can be changed according to the needs.
There is also a boundary between the Great Lightning Strike and the Wood Fire Magic Pattern. This requirement is not high. Because the Great Thunder Strike Technique is an offensive magic, the amount of elements is constant based on the magic pattern, and it will not be like the two buff magic patterns of Wood Fire.
They are also disturbed, so it is only necessary to separate them with the neutralizing element wind.
Moreover, the boundary magic pattern does not need to be as high as the main magic pattern. Even if the main magic pattern is a super magic pattern, an intermediate boundary is enough. Too high a level will overwhelm the main magic pattern.
However, the difficulty is
"This mission is being watched by both the Mission Hall and the Divine Artisan Hall," Tracy said. "We'll take it first, so we have the upper hand. However, the great magic pattern masters of the association have tried their best, but can't."
The reason for completion is very simple, because the material of the wand is limited. After completing the three main magic patterns, there is not enough space to complete the boundary magic patterns.'
Seeing Roy looking at her, Tracy confessed, 'The higher-ups believe that the only person who can possibly solve the problem now is you, so they sent this thing to Munich.'
As she said that, she looked into Roy's eyes sincerely and said, 'This task is equally important to me personally. If you can complete it, the reward from the association alone will be enough for you to buy ten sets of equipment.'
She took out a booklet marked with the goods classification record, handed it to Roy and said, 'In addition, I am also willing to personally donate any item on this list.'
Roy took the list and only turned through two pages before his eyes were fixed on one thing and he could no longer move his eyes away.
